Falls and Western Chobe
Journey Overview
Falls and Western Chobe opens with the waterfall, then moves to the quieter western side of Chobe. The wildlife nights are at Muchenje Safari Lodge, set on an escarpment above the floodplain about 60 kilometres from Kasane, away from the busier eastern riverfront. Muchenje is fully inclusive: meals, drinks, activities, park fees and laundry. Game viewing follows the lodge programme, and the point of staying here is that the drives feel personal and unhurried. You spend three nights. In the January to March 2027 window this package uses, the lodge's pay-two-stay-three offer is already in the price. Victoria Falls is two nights at 528 Victoria Falls, a leafy bed and breakfast about 2.5 kilometres from town, with breakfast included and one late afternoon on the Ra-Ikane sunset cruise (drinks, snacks, transfers and cruise park fees, maximum 16 guests). A private transfer from Victoria Falls or Livingstone to Muchenje is included. The supplier currently marks that transfer line as provisional. The price on this page, USD 1,990 per person sharing, is for January, February and March 2027 only. December 2027 to March 2028, and the shoulder and high seasons, are quoted on request. Minimum two guests. Not included: Victoria Falls rainforest entrance, visas, travel insurance, tips, flights, and meals in town other than breakfast and the snacks on the cruise. A departure that is not the included transfer to Muchenje, including a return to Victoria Falls Airport, should be confirmed when you book. If you fly into Kasane instead, the airport-to-lodge transfer is complimentary with Muchenje.
